Just wondering if anyone knows what diff this is?

Its fitted in a standard TT soarer diff housing but it doesn't look like a stock torsen.

No, it's from a jza80 just trying to work out if it's a torsen 2 or mechanical 1.5/2 way.

Doesn't look like a torsen, and looks very similar to the TRD lsd that my brother has

You can't see the gears on a T-2 type torsen.

Hopefully fit it this weekend if I get a day off.

Hahaha... Sorry.
I meant visually; do they have the same housing or is the difference only internal?

Ahh, did some research and found out the difference between T2 and T1.

T2 was never optioned for the soarer; it was only available for the Supra TT.

T1(A) = crossed helical gears
T2(B) = parallel gears

For Toyotas; the first 'A' designation in A02B stands for the Type 'A' or Type 1.

So basically I have a type 1... Well, better than an open diff anyway... Hahahaha.

Supras reportedly have a T2R which is a T2 with a bias plate applying preload.

Yep they're good. Be careful when it snaps sideways, it *really* snaps sideways!

Its much more controlable then when an unpredictable open diff.

Atleast you know each time it'll slide out as oposed to playing a guessing game.
